Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book critiques the concept of British liberty and the government's actions concerning the American colonies. The author, a self-described "constant and zealous partizan" of the government, argues that the American Revolution was justified. He grounds this view in his analysis of civil liberty, arguing that liberty inheres fundamentally in self-determination. The author contrasts political liberty and personal liberty throughout the book, arguing that liberty cannot exist in cases where those governed do not have a voice in their governance. He traces the development of both civil and political liberty in Britain and America, and he ultimately concludes that the colonists have a natural right to political freedom and that the British government has overstepped its bounds by attempting to deny them this right. This book is important because it provides a detailed framework for understanding the American Revolution and the complex debates over the relationship between personal liberty and political liberty that were central to the era.
